Backed into the garage tonight, only to see a box on the front porch..Dammit, tikk , what the hell was this for?

Thanks so much, bro!! What is the mystery growler? Already crushed Wild Sage, and it was fantastic!:) Not sure why I deserved this, but this place never ceases to amaze me with the generosity amongst everyone around here!!:D

Thanks again, Bill! Return mystery box coming soon...;)
I figured you could use your growler back and didn't want to send it alone, it's Singlecut Heavy Boots of Lead. A damn good stout from them.

Enjoy it!
 
Ask Sideswipe if he can be my proxy for a pair of bottles, and I'll send some thank you beers his way. I don't think he understands how this works, because he added 10 ******* bottles to the 2 he picked up for me. All new ticks, except for 1 (which I happened to love). I swear he must be a mind reader because this is the second box he has hit me with like 5-6 big time wants, that he had no idea I wanted.

Just got back from Japan / China / Hong Kong!

That's the 4R 125th I found in Tokyo (700ml ffs)
4x RdG
4x Kriek
Couple bottles of nice sake as gifts for boss and coworker

Would have gotten more Cantillon if it weren't for the check-in luggage weight limit. I flew business on the trip to Tokyo and on the way back, but only economy on the leg from Tokyo to China - which meant limit 1 checked bag and lower weight limit for peasant class.

Got a buttload of KitKat at the airport because adjuncts/variants. There's green tea, hazelnut, strawberry cheesecake, citrus, apple, green tea + cherry blossom, strawberry, more green tea, and dark/bitter chocolate.
 
So there's a debate about how this works, and I've actually seen it cause great discord and confusion elsewhere.

Method A:
What's described above, where the numbers indicate preference and the sequence is given in physical order. "3, 1, 2" would imply that the most desirable person/object is in the middle, the 2nd most desirable is on the right, and the 3rd most desirable is on the left. The merit of this approach is that you can scan from left to right and see each person's rank.

Method B:
You order the objects/people by how desirable they are, so the numbers indicate physical order and the sequence is given in terms of preference. "3, 1, 2" would indicate that the person on the right (the 3rd person) is the most desirable, followed by the person on the left, followed by the person in the middle. This is what you might have in mind if you asked a question like, "Who were the winners?". "3, 1, 2" would say that 3 was 1st place, 1 was 2nd place, and 2 was 3rd place.

I'm pretty sure that this confusion was what got Steve Harvey in trouble with the Miss Universe pageant, and I expect to be a secondary cause of World War 3.

I would encourage the powers that be to choose one of these methods as the official TalkBeer method and ban users who don't comply.

At lunch today, thought of this post...

Those Green Tea Kats are so official. They have them locally here in CT along with most of those flavors. Cost a grip but an easy justification.
 
It's from the Hobbiton movie set in NZ, purchased at their gift shop. Also had a glass of a draft-only stout at the Prancing Pony that was pretty good!

Okay then, just laid a little game plan:

1. Win Powerball.

2. Go to Stockholm, spend an obscene amount of money at Akkurat.

3. Go to New Zealand and drink from those taps above.
 
Did a gopickitformebro for SanDimas1988 for some Denver shelf turds(seriously). Got home tonight after a ****** day at work to find this thank you box waiting for me. Really wanted the Bells 30 and am currently enjoying the **** out of the Billy IIPA. I really needed this today, thank you.
